A world of DIY ideas with Femke Pastijn

{images by Jeroen van der Spek}

Stylist Femke Pastijn has a huge talent for styling and coming up with very simple and creative DIY ideas for the home. Taking forward the neon trend she thought of a solution for both hanging your tea towels to dry and covering your windows in a unique way. The wall hook made using a ruler and some spools are fun and very decorative for every sewing room. (All published in Dutch magazine 101-woonideeen)

I'm sure you will enjoy browsing Femke her website ... so much eye-candy and not only DIY ideas, the houses she has styled for various photo-shoots are very nice to see. I would really consider calling her for adding some spice and ideas to my home too. Her contact details are right here.

{lamp by Moooi, art on the wall by maditi, pillows by Nala}

You might have seen these images over at Decor8 last week ... Holly was so super kind to introduce Nala design and my first official styling job to her readers.

Just before Christmas a photo shoot took place in my home here in Kuala Lumpur for  Nala Design, a stationery and home decor line from Malaysia founded by my friend Lisette Scheers.

It was a fun day and I have to give a special thanks to Tian Xing and Sammie from Show Up Pictures, they are fantastic to work with and I would definetly hire them for any photography job. 

Hope you don't mind me letting you be with just the images today ....and I do hope you visit Nala's webshop.  

 

       

Lab 71

Lab 71 by frieda mellema =  concept  .  design  . styling  . photography of...

Yes, Frieda Mellema former half of Friedamaria has gone solo with wonderful inspirational products and images. What I  love about the first look of her website is the experimental feel of making new things... we already loved her style very much and Lab 71 is only bringing us better and more thought-through items. 

In the diary section you can find pictures of the work in progress of Frieda's gorgeous handmade creations and great inspirational ideas of how you would style them. My favorite is her butterfly brooch collection. Very uniquely made and I would wear it with a chain as a necklace as well.
